Both teams are ready for their second game of the season. </p><h3>IPL 2025: CSK beat MI in their season opener</h3><p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">The five-time IPL champions CSK started the season with a good win against another five-time IPL winners Mumbai Indians. Thanks to Noor Ahmed (4/18) and Khaleel Ahmed (3/29), CSK restricted MI to 155/9 in 20 overs. Although CSK were losing wickets regularly after the powerplay, the strong batting performances from the captain Ruturaj Gaikwad (53) and opener Rachin Ravindra (65 not out) were enough for the hosts to claim a four-wicket win with five balls to spare. </p><p><strong>See Also:</strong> <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/csk-vs-rcb-match-08-weather-and-pitch-report-ipl-2025/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CSK vs RCB: Match 08 Weather and Pitch report IPL 2025</a></p><h3>IPL 2025: RCB make a great start by thrashing defending champions</h3><p>Before CSK, the three-time IPL runners-up RCB started the IPL 2025 with a thrashing seven-wicket win in the first game of the tournament against the defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders in Kolkata. After KKR had a controlled start at batting first, Krunal Pandya (3/29) powered RCB to make a strong comeback in the game, and later, Phil Salt (56), former skipper Virat Kohli (59 not out), and captain Rajat Patidar (34) produced fiery batting to chase the 175-run target in 16.2 overs after losing only three wickets. </p><h3>IPL 2025, Match 8: CSK vs RCB Possible Changes</h3><p>Both CSK and RCB are looking to maintain their respective strong start in the new IPL season. Pacer <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhuvneshwar_Kumar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bhuvneshwar Kumar</a> missed RCB's first match of the season, and his availability for their second game of the IPL 2025 isn't sure enough. While Kumar can join the RCB playing XI only with his proper fitness, the visitors can go with one extra spinner if the Chennai pitch brings spinners in favour. Without any injury concern, CSK are unlikely to make any significant changes in the playing XI. </p><h3>IPL 2025, Match 8: CSK vs RCB Playing XIs (Probable)</h3><p><strong>Chennai Super Kings Predicted Playing 11: </strong>Rachin Ravindra, Ruturaj Gaikwad (Captain), Rahul Tripathi/Khaleel Ahmed (Impact Player Sub), Deepak Hooda, Shivam Dube, Sam Curran, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Nathan Ellis, Noor Ahmad</p><p><strong>Royal Challengers Bengaluru Predicted Playing 11:</strong> Virat Kohli, Phil Salt, Rajat Patidar (Captain), Devdutt Padikkal/Suyash Sharma (Impact Player Sub), Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Tim David, Krunal Pandya, Rasikh Salam/Swapnil Singh, Josh Hazlewood, Yash Dayal </p>]]></content:encoded> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[Royal Challengers Bengaluru playing 11 vs Chennai Super Kings IPL 2025 match 8]]></title> <link>https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/rcb-playing-11-vs-csk-ipl-2025-match-8/</link> <guid>https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/rcb-playing-11-vs-csk-ipl-2025-match-8/</guid> <pubDate>Thu, 27 Mar 2025 07:20:14 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[RCB faces CSK in IPL 2025 Match 8 at Chepauk on March 28.

It was the afternoon match against Rajasthan Royals in Hyderabad, where SRH recorded the second-highest IPL total, 286/6, just one run away from their record IPL total. All the top six SRH batters had 200+ strike rates. After the opener Abhishek Sharma scored 24 off 11 balls (five fours), Travis Head smashed 67 off 31 balls with nine fours and three sixes. </p><p dir="ltr">While Nitish Kumar Reddy (30 off 15 balls; four fours and one six) and Heinrich Klaasen (34 off 14 balls; five fours and one six) scored crucial 30s, Ishan Kishan recorded his first IPL century by scoring 106 not out off 47 balls with 11 fours and six sixes. </p><p dir="ltr">Although SRH bowlers took three RR wickets in the powerplay, the batting pitch experienced dominance from RR batters.

With the help of Mitchell Marsh's 72 off 36 balls (six fours and six sixes) and Nicholas Pooran’s 75 off 30 balls (six fours and seven sixes), and David Miller’s crucial cameo 27 not out off 19 balls (one four and two sixes), LSG scored 209/8 in Visakhapatnam.</p><p dir="ltr">In reply, Delhi Capitals were once down to 65/5. Tristan Stubbs (34 off 22 balls; one four and three sixes) and Vipraj Nigam (39 off 15 balls; five fours and two sixes) helped DC return to the game, and Ashutosh Sharma never gave up in the tricky chase as his heroic 66 not out off 31 balls (five fours and five sixes) helped DC to snatch a one-wicket win. </p><p dir="ltr">SRH are unlikely to make any significant change in the playing XI for their home match against LSG.
